It is my understanding that 2 9 mm's were used and the bushmaster was left in the vehicle. Adam Lanza managed to kill 28 people with the 2 9 mm's. Imagine how much more damage he could have done if he had used the bushmaster. Now you have not only made the case to ban bushmasters, you're also making a case to ban 9 mm's and others like it. Keep up the good work.

edit:

Adam did use the bushmaster. He also had lots of ammo left. He killed himself when he heard sirens. See later post as to source. It would be nice if news sources did get their stories straight.

NO your are not ,, you are making the case for armed guards and being able to protect yourself.

no. there has been a false narrative about an ar usedthere. its disengenuous and makes antis seem shady.

how many times more do you need to hear it? no law you make will protect against this, short of turning our schools into prisons.

killers will use a rock if they have to. a law preventing law abiding us citizens their rights wont make you feel safer.

why does the liberal agenda involve forcing others to do as they see fit?

How many were wounded?

Unless doing the bullet to the temple thing - or the occasional lucky shot, needing quite a few hits to do more than injure a person is pretty normal with most guns.

What's important here is not which guns did the damage, but that the damage was done at all. Arguing over whether Lanza used an AR-15, a Bushmaster, a couple of 9mm pistols or anything else is irrelevant at this point.

The Sandy Hook school shooting was a giant, elaborate hoax and no one really died; that’s the conclusion Wolfgang Halbig, a former educator, US Customs agent and Florida state trooper, has reached after ten months of investigation and multiple disputes with federal, state and school authorities.

a) If you have any allegiance to the idea that the founders intended citizens to bear arms similar to those issued to individual soldiers then, yes, it should be exempted from enhanced controls.

b) Even the ham-fisted SCOTUS decision in U.S. v. Miller stated that Miller had a right to own a Browning Automatic Rifle similar to those issued to US troops in WWI.

a) Since that is in fact a distortion of original intent, I find myself less and less disposed to it. The intent was not to ensure a citizen could rise up against the US Govt any time he wanted to, and in fact the Alien and Sedition Act that closely followed (nine years) the ratification of the Constitution tells us the Founders really didn't intend that at all.

No, the 2nd is a slave suppression statement - included in order to entice Southern states into the Union by explicitly allowing a "free state" to 'secure' itself by force against runaway and rebellious slaves.

b) Why then isn't the NRA seeking to overturn the Gun Control Act? Why isn't it seeking bazookas, mortars, and howitzers for the general population?

There was another compromise intended to appease the slave states = the Electoral College.

No irony that these two elements of the Constitution have resulted in great loss of life, here and in places like Iraq. Owning slaves implies that you have little concern of the value of the lives of others, just the amount you paid for them.

It doens't matter if one was used at Sandy Hook. What matters is that they spew more rounds than is necessary for anything less than a full frontal assualt. There is no need in society for anything more than single-shot.

You ain't never had to get varmints offa your property. There is a rifle that fits the bill to a tee. It uses the same round as your AR15 'assault' weapons, just doesn't look like one. I'm thinking about getting one as I discovered rabbits going into and out of the bottom of one of my outbuildings. Your 'single shot' claim is a statement made in ignorance
